Jskandhari,

No, there currently is no music app on in the developer preview, there
once was a still image representing the presence of a music app, but
that's not even there anymore. Design should be starting work on the
music app soon, followed closely by actual development. If you're
interested in helping out in any way, just let me know.

Jim
